You should get them a couple of days after Oxford transfers the money and it clears.

the buy is sposed to be ending tomorrow guys please advise if still interested!!so i can finalise the buy.

at this stage we have only 10 people that have paid up and a few that have pulled out, but there are a few remaining that have not let me know if they wanna go ahead.

so 10 ppl does that mean have to transfer $45 instead of the $41?... (since most ppl have transferd $41)

count me in for '90 RB26

will send payment once i get which price to pay lol

I paid last week, you really need to let people know if they're payment has been recieved mate. especially since the end date has come and gone...

I'd just like to know if the money has reached you or not...

hiya all

just to let ya know that the group buy will be finalised on monday and all the deposits from people will be paid to the distributor on tues or wed.

so hopefully they will be sent out to you guys by the weekend.

but if you would still like one i will be buying a few extras to have if ppl are still keen, only difference will be they will cost $41 plus postage(instead of $41 including postage)

cheers oxford.

...now that i do have the valve and can finally get around to changing the engine oil, what should i replace the oil with? (weight, brand etc)

hiya andy

i use MOTUL oils in both my bikes and my cars, they are good quality without being horrendesly expensive, 5ltrs of turbolight 4100 which is a 10/40 weight oil should set you back around $45-50 depending on where ya get it. when you do the oil change don't forget to put a light smear of oil (clean of course)around the gasket surface of the valve to assist in it sealing correctly.

as these oils have scrubbers added in them when you change it, it should come out black as this means it has cleaned the carbons and silts out of your system.

if the oil comes out cleanish so to speak it means it has not really been decarbonising anything inside the engine, which over time can lead to earlier than normal bearing damage or failure.

hope this helps.

cheers oxford

    • If there's enough meat in the housing where you want to put the M12 adapter, then do it, but be aware that if/when you f**k that up you'll probably be repairing it before doing anything else. I'd just drill it out and tap ina 1/4" thread. No need for rocket surgery when the next most obvious thing will do. You could throw a 1/4 x 1/8 bush in there and use the same fitting you intended to use.
    • Is the only issue that the oil catch can is getting filled on hard runs? I'd be thinking more about oil control issues rather then the head lifting, especially as you aren't seeing spiking in the coolant pressure.  Do you need restrictors in the head, or better drains from the head? Does the sump need venting to the catch can?
    • Tried to make 1/8npt threads into compressor house of the turbo for my EBC. Threads got fu#ked and ended up with and elongated hole, so I do have good amount and nice threads 90% of the hole but 10% I only had 1-2threads there and rest of it is flush on that side of the hole.. So my idea is to do M12 x 1.25 to AN4 with braided lines instead of 1/8npt to 4mm vacuum silicone hose.  and hopefully get a better thread. M12 is quite big and AN4 is a little bit bigger than 4mm (4.9mm inner diameter braided PTFE hose). but this should work. Thoughts? Otherwise I will weld and adapter onto the turbo.   
    • Looks great, I hope everything is working well after all that time!
